Bond has been set at $15,000 for a 30-year-old Centralia man who fired a gun inside his home Saturday morning.

Patrick Flanigan of East Kerr Street was charged with reckless discharge of a firearm and possession of less than 15 grams of cocaine.

The reckless discharge count accuses Flanigan of endangering the safety of another person by discharging a firearm from the second floor down into the first floor where another person was located.   The other person was not struck.

Centralia Police say the female in the home was on the phone to 911 to report Flanigan making threats to fire the gun when a single shot was heard.

Police say they located several firearms, a white powdery substance that field tested positive for cocaine along with one spent 9mm shell casing in the residence.

Flanigan has posted $1,500 cash bond.  He asked the court time to hire his own attorney.
